It's definitely not the first time this kind of thing has been done. You don't need FDA approval to sell repackaged vitamins, just a good marketing plan.

JoPoy88 Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 (edited) A million and one health and wellness companies, many of them owned and/or sponsored by pro athletes, fitness trainers, etc., have been doing the exact same thing for many, many years.

Walk into any pharmacy or health store in the country and there are shelves of the exact same “immune-boosting” vitamin blends that he is selling by innumerable companies big and small. Also learn how to spell your insults, especially if you’re going to emphasize them. Makes you look like less of a...well you know.

1st Ammendment NoMas Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 I just got mine in the mail. Awesome stuff. I kicked coronavirus ass, threw a 30 yd rope to a 12 year old kid, slam dunked a basketball, ran a marathon and then threw my boss through the window for being a Patriots fan. It was all going good until then. The cops came, I got explosive diarrhea, vomited up a Super Bowl ring that I stole and hopped into a white Bronco. Typing as I drive.... 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, why would Tom Freaking Brady be pimping health supplements? He's already richer than God and certainly doesn't need the money or publicity. The doofus just believes that this crap works.

It actually doesn't mention COVID-19 anywhere in the promotion, other than the delayed shipping. Why isn't anyone busting GNC's balls for selling snake oil supplements?
